Have a package going out to all pc's in the building. About 1,000 pc's.
Anyway, the package MSI has no switches that would forcibly restart tge pc:.

The program properties are:
msiexec.exe /q ALLUSERS=2 /m MSIIUCIR /i "appx.msi"
Run: Normal
After Running: No action Required

So, it runs fine on the target machine then restarts the pc. Excecmgr.log
has exit code 1641: "The requested operation completed successfully. The
system will be restarted so the changes can take effect. "

Not sure why its doing this. No where in the package setup or the
advertisement does it request a restart, or show the pc needs to be restarted.

Anyone?

If a file that the installation wants to replace is in use, it may
trigger a reboot to successfully replace that in-use file. To
suppress the reboot in this case, you can often get away with changing
the installation line to be this:

msiexec.exe /q ALLUSERS=2 /m MSIIUCIR /i "appx.msi"
REBOOT=ReallySuppress

(it is case sensitive, be sure you use that exact phrase, including
the case).

Be aware that in your Advertisement Status summary, you'll get results
that indicate "Reboot Pending". Basically, the installation was a
success, but the installation will not be reported as a "Success"
until a reboot is done.
